What do all religions have in common
what do all the worshippers believe to be the same
How many commonalities exist
Can we make a list? Start an E-church? where all are welcome and feel comfortable?
Love you all image of man

There are several churches like this. The Unitarian Universalist church welcomes all faiths and has a positive message and belief system that basically follows the golden rule. They also have a "Church of the Larger Fellowship" online.
The only problem I've seen with them is if you want to go into ministry. I've been corresponding with their email contact, and she states that you basically have to go to school 5-6 years full time to achieve ministry. I think that's pretty ridiculous, but the church looks cool. They have Buddhist, Wiccan, Christian members and even atheists. It's all about coming together to study what is good and to eliminate in ourselves that which is not.
Other than that, you can search for the "Universal Life Church" and instantly become an ordained minister yourself and start a church. Some people might not see this as legitimate, but they are forgetting that God calls ministers to begin with, not people. Only you know if you have received a call.
That's my best shot. :)

I am not interested in a church popular by all people. I am interested spreading truth. I believe that Jesus is the way and the truth and the life. I want to be with my Lord after this life here.
I go to the church that everyone is welcome...but everyone is not going to be comfortable, because my minister is teaching the word of God...and everyone is not just going to be comfortable with that. We have a free will, let's use it wisely.

They are meant to give direction & meaning to a persons life, they offer some great moral teachings. If only everyone would look at them that way & respect other religious books for what they are.

There is certainly a flood story in all of them, and the Great Battle at the end between Good and Evil.

they all have similarities in what are considered to be the laws rules and mores of their particular Belief systems to get to the Higher Plane of Existence once their journey on this plane is done. these also have instructions regarding various taboos which are to be avoided and if performed the consequences for doing them.

You could read a book on world religions and see for yourself.
